The most disappointing video call ever. [OC]

A bit of background: I (M24) occasionally like to browse various dating apps for spontaneous hookups. Nothing too crazy, just see if anyone is available and meet up for a bit of causal fun. Yesterday evening I was really in the mood for some action, but sadly it was pouring down rain and not worth the effort of either going out or convincing someone to brave the storm just for some sex. I was in my room doom scrolling while debating on pulling up some porn when I remembered that one of my friends had recommended this new website that was like…. The best way to describe it is if Tinder and Omegle had a baby. It’s called “So Far” (their tagline is “so far, yet so close” and I can’t decide if that’s clever or lame) and the idea is that you match with long distance dates to have a dirty video call. I made an account and looked through profiles for a while and eventually I matched with someone I thought was hot, and I guess she thought so too. After a brief chat we hopped on a video call, and luckily it was actually this girl in the pictures and not a catfish. I was super lucky that there was minimal awkwardness in getting started, and pretty soon things were getting steamy. She got up close to her webcam and began taking her clothes off, and oh man did I hit the jackpot with this virtual hookup. Needless to say I was quite excited in more ways than one. She leaned in and whispered that she wanted to see what I had to offer. Which was great because I was ready to go. Just then, a huge bolt of lightning tore through my neighborhood with a thunder clap that shook my windows. It scared the ever living shit out of me. Not only that but the power went out. My online sexy time was cut short by the stupid storm. All this to say, I tried “So Far” and got so hard, but in the end, it didn’t even matter.
